Just right
2 out of 3 found the following review helpful

Pros: It is so nice to find something, in this world, upon which you can depend- sounds great and is easy to play. There probably are others that just as good but we do not have the time nor the money to experiment.

Cons: .

A most welcome newcomer!

Pros: Though a little metallic for the first few hours of playing opens up into a beautiful warm and responsive sound on my 19th century French cello. Has a wonderful effect on the upper strings too (Larsen A and D standard).

Cons: Price-doubtless stops it being tried by more cellists!

Depends on your cello

Pros: If you're looking for a bright bass string this is it!

Cons: Too bright for my cello - recommend trying it out before buying if possible.

BOOM

Pros: It's great to finally have a string robust enough to give me the type and volume of sound I want out of my cello - all the resonances have been enhanced

Cons: That it is good enough to persuade me to fork out for another as a spare!

Other: Middle strings on my cello have always been hard to coax sound out of......until now

Magnacore- great sound, worth the price.
0 out of 1 found the following review helpful

Pros: I play an electric cello, which can sound a bit scratchy as the transducers are in the bridge and pick up the bow sounds. These strings (I have a full set now)are the best I have had, with much less bow sound and in general an exceptionally clear, full, bright sound.I imagine they would be v good on an acoustic cello also. Pricey, but nothing compared to the cost of a good cello and bow.

Cons: none
